Non-Woke Food and Beverage Brands

Browse 276 Food and Beverage brands rated on the BuyWokeFree woke index. 246 are rated Not Woke.

Few purchases are as frequent as food and drink — the grocery run, the coffee stop, the drive-thru — so the brands you buy from collect your money week after week, and many of the biggest names in the category have taken very public stances in recent years. The landscape is shifting fast: in January 2025, McDonald's said it would retire its aspirational representation goals and end DEI pledges for suppliers, and in February 2025 PepsiCo reportedly sunset its DEI workforce representation goals even as some rivals held firm. With Pride sponsorships, ESG commitments, and political giving still varying widely from one label to the next, the only reliable way to shop your values is to check each brand's record — which is exactly what this page gives you: 276 rated Food and Beverage brands, 246 of them rated Not Woke.

High Scorers to Research First

At the other end of the index, Starbucks and VooDoo Ranger are each rated 100/100, and McDonald's is rated 80/100, so values-first shoppers may want to review those profiles before adding them to the cart.
